We don't even know where to begin with Essbe's year! We opened our first permanent jewelry studio in Royal Oak in January, hired a talented team throughout the year, gained a great deal of amazing customers, and ended the year with opening our second permanent jewelry studio in Rochester Michigan. "Growth" is what comes to mind when we think of 2023!
Let's talk about opening the Royal Oak permanent jewelry studio first! We have so many memories in this little 400 square foot place. Not only could you shop our ready-to-wear jewelry straight from our shelves, but you could also purchase a permanent jewelry piece whenever it was convenient for you! No matter if you were out on the town with your besties, or if you just needed some TLC, Essbe in Royal Oak quickly became the place to stop by. This is also the space we launched our wholesale sister company, Essbe Jewelry Supply!
With the growth of Essbe & Essbe Jewelry Supply, we knew we needed more space and discovered many customers were driving far to get permanent jewelry in Royal Oak. Suddenly, the plans started to move forward and we quickly discovered Rochester Michigan as the ideal place to open our second permanent jewelry store! Despite months of construction, the store finally opened on November 1st, 2023 to great success and community support!
As we reflect on our growth this year, we keep thinking about you, our customers! Without your support, we would not be where we are today. We are so thankful for all of the wonderful people we have met, the connections we have made, and the stories we have heard. We are so excited to see where 2024 takes us and to continue providing beautiful, quality jewelry to our customers!
